To: where's_the_Outrage?

Just having her out is half of the game. Now the Leftists on the Supreme Court CANNOT overturn anything from the lower courts, even if Roberts joins them - as that only results in a 4-4 decision, meaning the lower court ruling stands.

Where it’s important to Americans are hard-left rulings by the lower courts, which needs that 9th judge to overturn (assuming, again, Roberts joins the left).

So we are halfway there...perhaps a nice ‘compromise’ would be what was floated in 2016, which is a recess appointment by Trump, which would then be in place for the remainder of the year. After that, then whoever becomes president would get to permanently fill the seat. That keeps control with us through the election and vote counting, but makes it much tougher for the Democrats to make a case of the system being ‘rigged’ (although they’ll try and they’ll riot, in any case).

I think we need to amend the 3rd Article of the Constitution, cementing the SCOTUS as a membership of nine maximum.

The Demon Rats will, as soon as they realize they can, create a “six more justices” law and pack it with statist millennials.
